Tough Choice

I saw an IPL match on Sunday. The Mohali stadium was abuzz with roaring music. The atmosphere was superb. I thought I was sitting amongst Punjab fans. To my surprise they cheered with equal zeal for Pune. The sole purpose of the crowd was to come on TV! I followed their league and waved the Punjab flag when Yuvraj hit a four. And well, I wore a new top as well.
Ha!

We were watching KKR vs Mumbai Indians match right now. I'm a Tendulkar fan and so I was supporting the Mumbai team. Suddenly I saw Brett Lee and Gautam Gambhir. They both are immensely cute. I think my favorite team is KKR!!

Chris Gayle did an awesome job yesterday. RCB has been doing well so far and so, supporting them can mean supporting a winning team. Then again, I like Dhoni and somehow Chennai's yellow outfit looks extremely attractive... tough choice there.

I don't care much about Hyderabad and Delhi. And I think I am forgetting one last team.  Really, it's been what- 6 years? and I still have no clue whom to support!! I'll stick to the cute guys in KKR for now!

Do you have strong reasons like me for supporting a particular team?!

  1. You forgot my team Rajasthan Royals! *SOB Sob!*
    With the players changing teams every year, it is tough to form loyalties. I appreciate the good players but the team close to my heart is RR :D

    1. Haha!! I remembered RR later!
      You are right. Unless you have lived in a particular city for long, it is tough to form loyalties. It would have been better of players remained loyal to one team.

    1. It is better to watch cricket than hindi serials or political drama! And so I like to watch cricket :)

    1. I became a fan in the 90's. Although I don't follow cricket that religiously now, the Boy keeps me updated.

  5. I'm actually a fan of the underdog usually.. so this year, my loyalties are divided between Punjab ( playing way above their potential ), Hyderabad and Rajasthan.. of the lot, probably only Rajasthan will get through to the semis but still its always nice to watch an underdog win ( eg : the Miller innings helping Punjab defeat Bangalore )
